Re: American Revolution Game Thread. Day 2. POST 1 Brit Dead.
LSU, could you replace me?
Due to many business trips nowadays, I have to use the very limited time to make moves in my games. I will be missing another 4 days from Monday evening on because of another trip.

Third parties hould not be eliminated so early, and if my understanding is correct, might cause a deadlock.

He'll be in this for certain.

Well, even if he was, would he be a psychopath? I don't think so. He was just a traitor.

I have in no way made any claim as to affilation. The idea is a rather simple one though, assuming that there are large groups of the two main factions, the best case scenario for everyone not in that group (whichever group is leading at the time) is to try to eliminate a member of the strongest group at the time. Today that would be an American lynch, it would be a rather easy process to reevaluate tomorrow.

Re: American Revolution Game Thread. Day 2. POST 1 Brit Dead.
As of right now It'll end sometime on Sunday. If I see a lot of discussion taking place though, I'll consider giving it a full 96 hours/4 days for each daytime based off of the number of people in here.

Think about it. Health care sucked, and there was possibly no mental facilities back then. What do you think?

jnd- if you don't think so, then that's OK with me.

I need to catch back but it seems we're quite short on time. There seems to have been a fair amount of decent discussion though so I hope it'll keep going and we'll get a deadline extension =)

IMO those exact arguments is why a psycho is possible. LSU has experience and is (as advertised) running a more advanced game. ofc there is no proof so far but it wouldn't be outlandish.

Well we are far far away from a deadlock situation so that shouldn't really worry us. And 3:rd parties are only good for them few selves (in the long run at least) and hence should always be hunted IMO.

Re: American Revolution Game Thread. Day 2. POST 1 Brit Dead.
i disagree with the notion that third party roles are necessarily unuseful and therefore should be eliminated. While not directly related to this game, I can say in both games i have modded and played that it is frequently the efforts of third party players that keep the game in balance. While it is certainly possible that third party shooters are out there, which could be a danger to the group, it is also possible that these roles will be useful in a day phase or two if either group starts to become more sucessful than the other. Especially given the way this game could easily be set up, i think there are at least a few small factions who could either avanlanche the game in one direction or keep a stronger side from wiping out the other.
Id still advocate that making sure the two main factions remain balanced is the best approach to keep the game competitive for the longest amount of days. Meaning that today should still be a target for an American lynch (by anyone who is british, 3rd party, or a sneaky american trying to pretend they are not)

i still dont understand how you could not be 3rd party since you are pushing for a different vote every day not eliminating thrid party
you will just wait until there are so few british and americans that your power roles will be able the blow a way the rest

I disagree. If I'm on one of the two main factions, I don't want to balance the game every time someone dies. I want to kill off the opposing side!
You're definitely coming across as 3rd party, given your affinity to them and keeping them alive.

Re: American Revolution Game Thread. Day 2. POST 1 Brit Dead.
I dont actually understand why anyone would overtly act like one affilation, other than wanting to tie up a doc protection.
